Review: See Inside The Dinosaur

Review: See Inside Dinosaur

8/22/2016

Who doesn't like dinosaurs? Those big (and small) creatures that roamed the earth in days gone past. They have inspired movies, books, toys and countless other activities. I have a friend with a son who when he was younger was ALL about dinosaurs, he knew so much it was quite phenomenal.

I recently received a kit from Raincoast Books that is called See inside the Dinosaur.

This is a great kit, it comes with a dinosaur that you can take part and put back together. It is made of a sturdy plastic. A book about dinosaurs, and a paper dinosaur cut. This cut out shows all the different aspects of a dinosaur, working from the outside to the internal organs.

The dinosaur book is full colour , with lots of pictures and good text. It gives a good amount of information about dinsosaurs.

Here is a sample page so you can see the quality of this short book.

The put it together dinosaur is kept inside a plastic case when not in use. This keeps the wee pieces like the dinosaur brain safe. :) The elastic holds the plastic together as well. The 3-D interactive kit is a great find.

I have to admit, I was rather impressed with this 3-D exploration kit. It would be an excellent kit to use with your dinosaur loving students. A hands-on tool to help them explore and perhaps they too will be amazed at the tiny size of the brain (Just make sure you keep track of it so it doesn't get lost).

There is no booklet to show you how to put the dinosaur back together again, though it is fairly intuitive. Just a matter of snapping body parts into the skeleton.

I happily recommend this hands-on, interactive kit to you. It will provide you with plenty of material about dinosaurs as well has having two models to work with. Good stuff.
